The current museum exhibition seeks to recapture a sense of the spirit of the house during Pearse’s time. His study and the family sitting room allow very personal glimpses of the lives of the former occupants. Side by side with these rooms are the more public spaces in which Pearse’s pupils lived and worked. Visitors can now see the school dormitory, study hall and chapel. The aesthetic surroundings of the school were important for Pearse.

Opéra Rigoletto

Italie, 2016, 2h35 – Opéra
Réalisation : Claus Guth
Composition : Giuseppe Verdi

Synopsis : Entre le duc, futile, licencieux, et Gilda, victime de l’ignorance dans laquelle elle est retenue prisonnière, se dresse la figure à deux visages du bouffon bossu et du père obsédé par la malédiction. Monstrueux et déchirant, grotesque et sublime, le rôle-titre atteint son apogée dans l’air ≪ C ortigiani, vil razza dannata ≫, dont le mouvement descendant, de l’explosion de rage à l’imploration, affirme la capacité du compositeur à plier une forme héritée du bel canto à la vérité du théâtre. Placée sous la direction de Nicola Luisotti, cette nouvelle production de Rigoletto marque la première collaboration du metteur en scène Claus Guth avec l’Opéra de Paris.

Prada is a brand that even non-fashionable men are well aware of and follow from time to time. This time around Prada brought back the once hit collars back on-ramp, the popped up collars. Let’s look at a few pieces by Prada on-ramp, to decide whether it’s a yay or nay for you.





Look at this vibrant ensemble by Prada, following the same popping out the theme of bright colors and layered collars. Prada’s spring/summer collection 2028 had mostly been about bringing back 2000s trends, including jumpsuits.





Prada’s spring-summer collection showcased at Milan Fashion Week 2017-2018, was, however, a breeze of fresh air because it blended millennials with generation Z.





The best part about this collection is how the designer incorporated double layered shirts with popped up collars. This ensemble particularly is the perfect blend of contemporary with conventional- straight pants with striking red belt, all the little details are perfectly catered to.





Not to mention, socks with sandals. Yes, hopefully, this initiative by Prada will ward off the stigma attached to popped up collars and bring back the cool trend of awesomeness.
